Kronwall will be held out of Saturday's game against the Canadiens due to scheduled maintenance.

EDGE Analysis

Xavier Ouellet will replace Kronwall for the next contest. The Red Wings want to save some wear and tear on Kronwall's right knee, as he's had recurring issues with that body part for nearly a year. The hard-hitting blueliner has only played in nine of a possible 21 games for Detroit this season, and his numbers have suffered -- zero goals on 11 shots, just one assist and a minus-2 rating. Unless you're a die-hard fan of the Winged Wheel, you'll probably want to leave him on the waiver wire.
